...and I can't wait for my V8 back!

Been trundling around in a 55 1.9D Renault Laguna Estate for the last week [jam

Very strange car - has keyless entry, push button start and electronic handbrake, but nasty wool seats and no PDC, which I've kind of relied on when parking large cars - oops.

Pretty nippy and nice and torquey up to 4k revs when the engine just dies - eww, and had forgotten how squirmy a front wheel drive car is - nasty.

Anyway - my now extremely Individual 740 has a slightly new look, but am still waiting on the front lip spoiler. Ordered it nearly 6 weeks ago (not from CA I hasten to add) and it still hasn't arrived, despite being promised delivery of 2 weeks when I placed the order - grr. So the front will have to wait until I get back from holiday mid June for it's subtle face lift :(

Will of course take a few pics on Saturday morning, come rain or shine :)

what time will you be there at Roy's? I presume you mean in southampton. I'll be there around 3 pm if you're available to meet up. My first ET meet.... sort of.

Afraid I'm going to be there at 9am, as I've got to go to work (and it's 90 miles away from home - boo)

But my old rear bumper will still be there at 3pm if you want to say hello :D

What are you having done?
